Experience
Hello, my name is Dave and I'm a private tutor located in Toronto, Canada. I offer tutoring services to elementary, middle, and high school students in a wide variety of subject areas. I also help students prepare for standardized exams such as the LSAT and SAT. I have more than five years of teaching experience helping hundreds of students by creating tailored, personalized lessons based on their academic needs. I believe that students too often focus on memorization when the critical need is effective application.

Hobbies
Besides academics I enjoy writing poetry, playing guitar, playing ball hockey and badminton. The idea is that students need more than academics, but a balanced life that promotes a healthy mind and living. I actively advocate community building amongst youth; I have created several community initiatives aimed at addressing mental health, anti-bullying, and positive learning environments
